Meet the Sloths
About the Sloths With Latitude
Welcome to Sloths With Latitude – a blog for adventurous, budget-conscious travellers!
We are a young couple from the UK, sharing our love of travel with the world. Whilst we definitely enjoy the occasional week few days spent lounging on a beach with a cocktail in hand (a holiday style that likely earned Mia her ‘sloth’ nickname – more on that later), our true passion lies in immersive travel. We love diving into the heart of a destination: its culture, nature, and unique experiences.
Besides that, cutting corners and not travelling in the most luxurious of styles makes our travel more budget-friendly, a consideration we have to take into account as young adults not trying to add to our uni debt…
This blog is for like-minded travellers who crave adventure over extravagance. We aim to provide honest, transparent travel content based on real experiences – including the good, the bad, and the ugly. Whether you’re planning a gap year, a short trip, or a big adventure, we hope our detailed itineraries and destination tips will help you uncover hidden gems and travel more adventurously .
And the ‘sloth’ nickname? That was coined by Max’s dad, who insists it perfectly sums up our personalities – especially after witnessing the aftermath of our travels (or a long term at uni). While we might not fully agree with him, we’ve grown to embrace it. After all, we do love sloths – laid-back, curious, and always up for adventure. Sounds a little like us, really.
A Bit More About Us As People:
Meet Mia:
- Loves animals: can often be found trying to work out the best way to pet a cat or dog without getting bitten or scratched (rabies jab is an essential). A personal highlight was saving baby turtles off the road in Oman!!
- Ocean, beach, and sun-lover
- The kind, caring, generous and funny side of the team

Meet Max:
- Loves food: is well-known to have a bottomless pit for a stomach. A theory that was well and truly proven in Egypt, 5 courses for breakfast – no stress.
- The Mountain-lover
- The social sloth that also loves lists, itineraries and adventure planning
